	TrouserPress.com :: Voivod
		Like the Voivod himself (who, at this point, ventures into the unknown vastness of space), the album reveals a band making a successful, brave transition from primitivism to futurism.
		Beginning the band's album-by-album concept — the adventures of a futuristic warrior entity called the Voivod — War and Pain is a crude, careening blast of youthful energy, post-apocalyptic Mad Maxisms and prickly power-thrash reminiscent of Motörhead.
		Montréal's Voivod is a thrilling anomaly, staking out a unique terrain on the postmodern frontier.

	KNAC.COM - News - Voivod Lens Video For "We Carry On"
		SAN FRANCISCO - VOIVOD is hard at work producing the first music video for their new self-titled album, Voivod, to be released March 4th by Chophouse Records in partnership with Surfdog Records.
		Befitting the release of the band's 13th album, "We Carry On" is the 13th track on the new album.
		I've only heard the name Voivod, must be one of those bands that are wasting their time making a music video.

	InternetEd Reviews: Voivod- Voivod
		Longtime Voivod fans will be happy to note that original vocalist Denis Belanger is back on board and latest bass player Jason Newsted (formerly of Metallica) will also add further appeal to this album for metal heads everywhere.
		The uncrowned kings of weird metal are back with their 13th full-length album, the self-titled Voivod.
		While Voivod’s new sound is still original, don’t expect another Nothingface from the band.

	BLABBERMOUTH.NET - VOIVOD Sign With THE END RECORDS
		Voivod is a Great band and even there last album was FAR better than anything Metallica has put out in the last ten or more years.
		I've been more a fan of recent album and the Nothingface era, as opposed to the more obscure agressive old Voivod.
		I have been listening to Voivod since their Demo (yes the one with Venom's Buried Alive on it) I feel that they have matured greatly throughout the years.

	Voivod Discography
		After the disappointing showing of their 1991 album Angel Rat, Voivod took two years to produce a follow-up, 1993's The Outer Limits.
		It's Voivod's best since 1989's Nothingface, and the top progressive metal album of the year so far.
		And although the band offers several strong compositions, it becomes apparent soon that Voivod had already peaked artistically on their three preceding albums.

	TWAS 55: Victor, Thought Industry, Voivod
		It's almost as if Voivod, after a decade of learning how to play, has decided to start over at the beginning, and make the destructo-speed-metal album that they so thoroughly mangled the first time around.
		By 1986's Killing Technology, though, Voivod, perhaps as surprised as the rest of us to find themselves still around, actually began to pay attention to their own output, and a series of increasingly interesting albums followed.
		I began to suspect that Voivod were running out of fuel.

	BNR Metal Pages -- Voivod
		A stellar album from a stellar band, Voivod delivers what fans had hoped for, with Belanger's trademark vocals in place, Newsted providing a grinding bass foundation, and well-crafted songs that harken to prime Voivod past (circa The Outer Limits) and yet sound fresh and original.
		From their humble noisy beginnings, Voivod has developed into one of the most original and talented bands in the metal field.
		Following Forrest's departure in early 2001, and a brief period where the brand had broken up, Voivod officially announced the return of Belanger on vocals and none other than ex-Metallica bassist Jason Newsted as the newest member of the band.

	VOIVOD Voivod Lives reviews
		— "Voivod Lives" is a decent live album (or can be considered as a live compilation) from the chaotic Canadian prog/thrash gods.
		The addition of the Venom song 'In League With Satan' is good for novelty value, but for Voivod this is only a good to average album.
		All in all, it's a decent live compilation from Voivod, no more no less, but I prefer their earlier albums.

	Metallian.com
		How a former member of Metallica (yikes!) can join Voivod, whose last few albums (yikes!) have bored many a pants off, and compose and release a fast, heavy and interesting album is an enigma.
		What is not puzzling is how this album would be available at your local record store available for purchase, theft, whatever.
		These songs are just fun to blast loudly.

	Voivod - Remnants of Reason
		Voivod have done it again here, and with the exception of the recent Phobos, this may be my favorite Voivod album.
		Voivod, arguably the best cybermetal band in existence, has lived a 14+ year career in relative obscurity.
		This album is what "industrial" bands wish they could play, and shoudl probably be listening to for inspiration.

	Voivod: self-titled - PopMatters Music Review
		Voivod were now trying to sound more mainstream, closer to bands like Rush and Pink Floyd, but the album just didn't work very well, and the masses didn't care on way or another.
		In a stunning stylistic shift in 1988, Voivod eased up on the noise and screaming, and concentrated on melody and song structure, and the two albums that followed, 1988's Dimension Hatross and 1989's masterpiece Nothingface, established the band as one of the most formidable metal acts in the world.
		Voivod went on to perform as a trio for the rest of the '90s, while trying to return to their thrash metal roots, but it looked more than obvious that their best days were behind them.

	Rolling Stone : Newsted Joins Voivod
		Newsted's relationship with Voivod started in 1995, and he had done some writing for the band previously.
		Since leaving Metallica in January 2001 for "private and personal reasons, and the physical damage I've done to myself over the years while playing the music I love," Newsted has busied himself with an array of projects including EchoBrain, a group that began performing in 2001 and released a self-titled album earlier this year.
		Former Metallica bassist Jason Newsted has officially joined Canadian metal stalwarts Voivod and will play on and produce the band's next record.

	Voivod - Satan Stole My Teddybear
		It's not my favorite Voivod album, nor is it their most innovative, but the band would never again sound this rough and aggressive, and that alone makes it worth checking out for fans of raw thrash metal.
		Early on in Voivod's career, the various members all solemnly stated that if one member of the original lineup were to leave, Voivod would have to come to a halt as it was supposedly their composite chemistry that made the band what it was.
		The fact that Voivod is still releasing material, albeit mostly live archives from 1996, is a testament to the perseverence of the band.

	voivod bio
		Voivod are as important and influential now as they ever were, and although "Phobos" is the most recent chapter in the Voivod saga, it is far from being the end of the story...
		Voivod is one of those rare bands with the ability to foresee reality and to shape it.
		In 1995, Voivod released " Negatron", which was the #1 Aggressive Rock add in the United States in the first week of release, and which continued to dominate the charts for several months.

	Rough Edge: Voivod CD Reviews
		Regardless, "Lives" is an album that may only appeal to Voivod fans and not to those unfamiliar with the band.
		"Voivod" is written and performed by a band that's found a new excitement about their music and that excitement carries over to the listener.
		It's energizing to hear a band that has rediscovered their reason for playing music in the first place and that seems to be the case here.

	No Life Til Metal - CD Gallery - Voivod
		This was the first Voivod album I had ever heard and at the time I thought it was the greatest thing in the world.
		As with past Voivod releases the music is complex and technical with many tempo variations, time signature shifts, dizzying drum work etc. Newsted also proves he was really held back in Metallica with some fine bass playing that, while not out front in the mix, is easily heard and adds depth to the songs.
		Voivod (singer Denis "Snake" Belanger, guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour, drummer Michel Langevin, and bassist Jean-Yves Theriault) was one of the early metal bands out of Canada to gain popularity outside of their home country (along with Anvil, Exciter and a few others).

	Voivod: War and Pain - PopMatters Music Review
		Unbeknownst to them at the time, Voivod would go on to be a well-known word, not as the name of a comic book character, but as a symbol of musical virtuosity and creativity in the world of heavy metal, the name of one of the most respected bands in metal history.
		Recorded in three days in a basement studio located in a remote part of rural Quebec, in the dead of winter, the sound on the album is decidedly claustrophobic, in direct contrast to all the huge-sounding metal records emerging from the UK and Europe at the time.
		Only, in Voivod's case, their isolation would also be a major factor in how they sounded.

	KNAC.COM - Features - Voivod Double Interview
		Voivod albums in order of importance:Nothingface,Voivod(newone),Dimension Hatross,Angel Rat,The Outer Limits,Rrooaarr,War and Pain,Killing Technology,and The best of Voivod......Anyone who wants to discuss this matter go to www.geocities.com/soundsofpress The 9th track on the new album is my favorite and #4 is awesome too..
		Voivod will be hitting the road – tentatively with Sepultura – in April and it was just chosen to play the second stage on this summer’s Ozzfest [Newsted may also be playing bass with Ozzy Osbourne’s band during the tour], as well as open for Ozzy on a small Canadian tour just beforehand.
		Voivod is an instant classic that deftly melds the strong melodic sense and direct songwriting of the Nothingface-era work with Killing Technology-vintage raw intensity and progressive eccentricity.
